Commissioner Zach Iscol has been briefed on the horrific attack at the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC. While there is no known nexus to New York City at this time, NYC Emergency Management coordinates closely with NYPD and local, state, and federal partners to monitor for any potential impacts. Out of an abundance of caution, New Yorkers should expect an increased public safety presence at religious sites and cultural institutions. NYCEM continues to support citywide preparedness and maintain situational awareness. Staying informed is important.
